After the recent announcement of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle coming to PlayStation 5, it has been pointed out that players on the Sony platform may get the Xbox first-party game before Game Pass Standard subscribers. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is slated for a December 2024 release on Xbox Series X/S and PC, and will make its way to PS5 in spring 2025.
As an Xbox first-party game, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will also be available day one on Game Pass Ultimate and PC, but not on the standard console tier. For those unaware, Microsoft announced some time ago that it would be making some major changes to Xbox Game Pass on console and PC, with one of the biggest being the removal of day one first-party games from the standard subscription tier for Xbox consoles. This was accompanied by a price hike and a rebranding to "Xbox Game Pass Standard." Starting September 12, the only tiers that will get day one access to Xbox titles are Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass for PC.
